Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT Chardonnay Biologico 2024 Blumenfeld

What type of wine is it

The Chardonnay Biologico by Blumenfeld is a still white wine made from organically grown Chardonnay grapes in Trentino-Alto Adige. Vinification involves careful fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and four months' aging on the lees, ideal techniques to preserve aromatic precision and varietal freshness. In the glass, it displays a balanced technical profile distinguished by good body, pleasant lively acidity, and a clean, easy-drinking palate.

Where does it come from

The grapes that make up Blumenfeld's Chardonnay are sourced from vineyards near the Dolomites, within the Vigneti delle Dolomiti appellation in Trentino-Alto Adige. The immediate vicinity to the Dolomite massif defines a highly distinctive area, marked by strict mountain viticulture and a landscape alternating steep slopes and valleys. This specific geographic origin enhances a region renowned for its fresh white wines where fruit clarity is essential.

How is it made

The Chardonnay grapes are harvested between mid-September and early October, then undergo a gentle pressing in the cellar. The resulting must ferments in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, a key choice to maintain varietal aromas. When this process is complete, the wine matures in contact with the lees for four months prior to bottling, developing greater textural depth while preserving its linear taste.

Tasting notes

In the glass it appears straw yellow with bright greenish reflections typical of youthful wines. On the nose, it opens with a delicate bouquet dominated by aromas of ripe exotic fruit, including notable hints of mango, pineapple, papaya, and passion fruit, complemented by elegant citrus notes. On the palate, it reveals good body, sustained by fresh, lively acidity that leads to a medium-length, clean finish.

Food pairings

This label is particularly recommended as an aperitif and pairs naturally with seafood appetizers thanks to its pronounced freshness that cleanses and prepares the palate. The structure of this white wine also works beautifully with seafood dishes and enhances traditional Mediterranean recipes. Its balanced fruit notes and vibrant acidity are best enjoyed alongside delicate fish-based dishes.

When to serve

This bottle reveals its full potential when you want a fresh, immediate still white that’s ideal for convivial occasions. To fully showcase its sensory profile, a chilled serving temperature is recommended, essential for highlighting the fruit nuances and maintaining tension in each sip. The best experience is within a short time after release, when it preserves its aromatic precision and expressive purity.
